The 11th Swiss Juggling Festival

If, however, you wish to stay in the accommodation offered (open all night, with security, and only 3mins away from the 24hr juggling halls), a special combination ticket is being offered, which includes 2 nights, 2 breakfasts, and the Open Stage, all for 29.98 Swiss Fancs. Or for 1 night, with 1 breakfast, and the Open Stage, it'll cost 19.98 SF. If you want to sleep in the accomodation without the combination deal, the price is 10 SF per night.

If you're not on the combination deal, dinner will cost between 10 and 12 SF, and breakfast will cost 5.50 SF, and the show is 10 SF.

If you'd rather stay in a hotel, a cheap deal can be organised which you can get to by train or bus at a cost of 120 SF (for 1 bed, shower, WC, and breakfast). If you'd like a hotel room , please email the contact below for more info and details of the possibility of a shuttle bus (only one I think) when the normal transport isn't running.

Two halls will be available, free of charge. These will be open 24hrs a day, plus there is a cheap caffeteria. There is also an assembly hall where the Public Show will be staged on Saturday evening. Admission to the Public Show will cost 10 SF. If you'd like to be in the show (on a great modern stage), please email the contact below. Dormitories are located only 4mins walk away and will stay open all night. Caravans and Camper Vans can be parked under trees in a parking area near the dormitories. Cost of accomodation is 10SF per night. If the weather is good, there will be a parade on Saturday afternoon at 14.00 (wear colourful clothes) to the marketplace where the games will be held.

If a big group of you are coming together, please let them know in advance, so that they can be better prepared.
